Kate Evans, author of The Food of Love and Bump, will be addressing an audience of midwives, students, birth workers, doulas, academics and scientists at the Association of Radical Midwives annual conference in Nottingham.

As the organisers put it: ‘We’re thrilled to offer you a fantastic mix of science, art and practical skills to enhance your understanding of what Michel Odent calls ‘the shy molecule’. This conference aims to bring you knowledgeable, entertaining speakers and informative content, but even more importantly we want to connect people and spread the oxytocin love!’
